    The race was yesterday, not my fault if you slackers missed it.

    Really, did you expect different results?

    Your right, everyone should have seen it by now. I mean you got to have your priorities in order. A real fan blows off things like work, family, and school. If you DVR'ed it you should have watched it last night. I mean really, coming on a motorcycle fourm and expecting people to use spoiler in the title, thats asking a little much.

    +1. Stoner was smokin' for the home crowd, and that's good all the way around. I'm a Rossi fan, and Casey smoked him. Congrats on a great performance.

    Amen, good job Drew. I didn't get a chance to watch and wanted to know.. I don't get it when folks get weirded out when someone speaks up about race results, if you didn't have time to watch, to bad for you, don't jump on some one because they did and wanted to share..

    I like that white Duc.. Oh La,la..

    I'm not too sure about the white walls though... Looks to 1950's to me...

    Great race watched it live with a few beers of course found myself starting to worry about half way through with Stoner not pulling much of a Gap from Rossi with Rossi usually finishing the stronger.

    Those last 8 laps were just great with Rossi riding 100% rear wheel sliding and Stoner knowing Rossi was right behind so had to ride his arse off until near the end when a little moment had Rossi back off a little content with 2nd, how far back was Pedrobot in third.... :biggrin:

    John, that is a great shot ( :thumbsup: ) that epitomizes the nature of the race...both riders going hammer and tongs at each other at 110%.

    That MCN seems to be a pretty handy website.

    Love that shot its my current desktop :cool:

    Mcnews.com.au is a great site for Racing and new bike releases unlike MCN they tend not to speculate so seem a little slow and basic with reviews.
